XML validation in WS adapter

Question

Hi experts,
I get the following error message in SXMB_MONI while processing a message through a WS sender adapter:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<!-- Error Message -->
<n0:Fault xmlns:n0="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
     <faultcode>n0:Server</faultcode>
     <faultstring xml:lang="en">SRT: Failure in SOAP processing occurred</faultstring>
     <detail>
          <ns:SystemFault xmlns:ns="http://www.sap.com/webas/710/soap/runtime/abap/fault/system/">
               <Host>Integration Server Entry</Host>
               <Component>COREMSG</Component>
               <ChainedException>
                    <Exception_Name>CX_XMS_XI_SYS_ERR</Exception_Name>
                    <Exception_Text>System error</Exception_Text>
               </ChainedException>
               <ChainedException>
                    <Exception_Name>CX_XMS_SYSERR_VALIDATION</Exception_Name>
                    <Exception_Text>System error occurred during XML validation</Exception_Text>
               </ChainedException>
          </ns:SystemFault>
     </detail>
</n0:Fault>
This is strange, because I didn't configure any XML validation. I didn't configure that explicitly.
However, I noticed that the step "XML Validation Inbound Channel Request ( CENTRAL )" is executed every time I send messages to PI. Normally this is successful, so the message flow is not interrupted. But even in the successful case the xml header is always cut off (so the line "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>" in the beginning). I checked other messages with different adapters, and this step is never executed.
I would like to know whether this step can be switched off somewhere or whether it is performed by default. Does anybody know more about this topic?
Best regards,
Jörg

Hi Hema,
As per understanding you need to check one or few fields value is integer or not.
You can achieve in 2 ways :
Case1:Using inbuilt xml validation options.
For 7.11 and below
1)In ESR/Message type/Export the xsd to local machine.
2)Insert the xsd file in the below loc
/usr/sap/<sid>/DVEBMGS00/j2ee/cluster/server0/validation/schema/
<guid>/<namespace1>/<service_interface_name>/<namespace2>
<sid>: System ID of the server instance.
<guid>: The GUID of the SWCV.
<namespace1> : The namespace within which the service interface is defined.
<service_interface_name> : The name of the service interface.
<namespace2>
: The namespace of the Message Type used by the service interface. In many
instances, namespace1 and namespace2 are the same.
Italic path folders need to create by you.
For 7.3 and above
Michal's PI tips: XML validation - changes in 7.3
Case 2 :Handling using simple UDF.
Input-->UDF-->Output
try {
   Integer.parseInt(input);
   return input ;
catch(NumberFormatException e) {   
throw new StreamTransformationException( "Input field value for xyz field "+input+"is not in integer format.Plz correct it");
